Deborah Forger is an American scholar, at Dartmouth College (USA).
Biography
A postdoctoral scholar (2018–2021) in the Jewish Studies Program at Dartmouth College, Forger is a scholar of Second Temple Judaism and the New Testament, with an additional focus in early Jewish-Christian relations. She was a fellow at the Frankel Institute for Advanced Judaic studies and received her Ph.D. from the University of Michigan, where she was awarded the Dolores Zohrab Liebmann Fellowship, a multi-year national dissertation award. Though later polemics suggest that Jews and Christians differentiated themselves based on their view of God’s body, her work complicates this picture by analyzing how first-century Jews envisioned God in corporeal form and humans as divine. She is also interested in questions of where, how, and when the ways parted between Jews and Christians, and how scriptural hermeneutics impacted, complicated, impinged upon, and fortified those separations.
